Working with and for a smile
Jumbo’s ambition is to be the most loved supermarket in the Netherlands and Belgium. We aim to surprise our customers and exceed expectations so they enjoy shopping with us. With over 700 stores, the option to have groceries delivered via jumbo.com, our own distribution centers, and office colleagues, we work together every day to achieve this ambition. Collaborating to win over the customer is what drives us at Jumbo. 

Get started! This is what you'll do
In your role, you’ll foster a culture where Continuous Improvement is at the center. You’ll ensure open and transparent communication and support a healthy work-life balance. The core values of the Jumbo DNA – Together, Winning, and Entrepreneurship – are central to everything you do.

An important part of your job is supporting the development of your team members. Through regular one-on-one meetings, providing constructive feedback, and linking this to development plans, you’ll help shape their growth.

In addition to coaching, you’re also responsible for recruiting the right people, monitoring the quality, cost, and stability of delivered platforms and software. You’ll ensure that your teams take full ownership of their implementations — “You build it, you run it, you own it!”

Together, we are Jumbo: Where you'll work
Jumbo, with more than 700 stores and 40+ warehouses, operates a complex supply chain. Frozen goods, fresh products, and groceries are delivered daily to our stores and online customers. This tightly scheduled process is supported by a broad landscape of applications, with a robust SAP solution at its core.

Within our IT department, we are looking for a driven Engineering Manager to lead two Supply Chain SAP teams. These teams are responsible for developing and rolling out the entire logistics process of our supply chain, including over 40 warehouses, in SAP S4.

Our current SAP ECC installation is nearing end of life and offers limited flexibility due to extensive customization. With the new SAP S4 version, we are implementing a much more standardized solution to better support our business and accelerate innovation. SAP S4 serves as the central hub, connecting to many surrounding systems, such as the Locus Warehouse Management System.

At Jumbo, we are looking for go-getters, people with good ideas and the courage to work together on them. We care for each other: our customers, colleagues, and the world around us, and we want to do a little better every day. All our (future) colleagues bring a healthy dose of Jumbo DNA with them, and so do you! Additionally, you have:

• At least 7 years of experience in managing teams and leading senior engineers.
• The ability to inspire, motivate, and guide teams, and support team members in their professional development.
• Subject-matter expertise in SAP and logistics, including warehouse management. 
• Problem-solving skills. You make things possible for the customer. "Can't be done? Yes, it can!"

At Jumbo, you will find a working environment with warmth, fun, and attention to each other, where you have plenty of room to contribute to our ambition to become the most customer-oriented company. And just as you are there for our customers, we are there for you. You can count on:

• A gross salary between €5.700 - €7.300 per month (based on 40 hours).
• An annual bonus of max 10% of your annual salary, based on organizational goals.
• 30 days of paid holiday (with the opportunity to buy or sell days of paid holiday) and 8% holiday allowance.
• You build up a pension through participation in the Pension Fund for the Food Industry.
• A(n) (electric) lease car. We like to work together in the office, but you can also work partly from home.
• Room for entrepreneurship, growth and development. Not only in your job but also through our Jumbo Academy, online training through GoodHabitz and with a training budget.
• Daily fresh lunch in our Foodcafé, good coffee and fresh fruit. You can sport daily at our own Jumbo Gym for a small fee.
• Colleague discounts such as 10% off your groceries (up to €325 per year), participation in our collective health insurance or discounts through Beneftits at Work.
